I'm a pirate on Star Iron.

Apart from himself, probably no one in the entire Belleburg area really knows where he is hiding.

"Perhaps Mr. Giovanni, you could bring a few of Sambo's friends to Belloberg. Maybe he'll be in a good mood and come out to see you!"

"A friend of Sambo?"

Upon hearing this, Giovanni glanced at Luffy, knowing full well who Luffy was referring to.

After all, the fact that he always wore a mask showed that Giovanni was a complete Fool.

"Let's forget about it. After all, I still hope that the [Ether Front] can proceed smoothly!"

Even among those who are all masked fools, each person has a different definition of pleasure.

If a bunch of masked fools were really brought in, the entire Ether Front might descend into chaos.

After all, Giovanni is passionate about enjoying the game and wants to see players compete with each other and work together.

This is his pleasure, and he doesn't want to be disturbed by anyone else.

"Let's stop here for now, Mr. Luffy. I need to go find Sambo!"

Both being the Masked Fool, and despite Sambo having summoned him, Giovanni was now absent, which made him somewhat uneasy.

After saying goodbye to Giovanni, Roof then took over as a supervisor in the penalty area.

Seeing that everything was proceeding in an orderly manner, Luffy felt much more at ease.

Just as Luffy was about to leave, he saw a figure sneaking around at the entrance to the Iron Guard restricted area.

Seeing that the other person hadn't noticed him, Luffy took the opportunity to stay behind her and suddenly patted her on the shoulder.

"What are you doing, Little Hook?"

The blonde little girl, who had been intently observing the restricted area, was startled by Luffy's sudden action.

"Oh, it's Brother Luffy! You scared me to death!"

Turning around and seeing it was Luffy, Hook immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother Luffy, you should call him Lord Black Hook!"

"Alright, what are you doing here, Lord Hook? Have you finished your homework?"

These words immediately made Hook, who had just been looking confident, become awkward.

"Homework? Of course I've finished my homework!"

Seeing the way Hook's eyes darted around, Luffy knew she was definitely lying.

"Really? Then I'll have to call Miss Natasha and ask!"

As he spoke, Luffy took out his phone and pretended to make a call.

"No, Brother Luffy!"

Seeing this, Hook quickly grabbed Luffy.

"Hook will finish his homework as soon as he gets home. Brother Luffy, don't tell Old Witch. I mean, Sister Natasha!"

Hook looked at Luffy with teary eyes; he certainly had a talent for being cute.

"Alright, I won't tell Natasha, but you have to tell me what you're doing here?"

Upon hearing this, Hook immediately smiled and said to Luffy.

"Brother Luffy, do you know about the Ether Front?"

Upon hearing this, Luffy immediately burst into laughter.

"Of course!"

"Then I'll tell you in secret, the [Ether Front] is going to hold an offline tournament in our Belloberg, right here, so I'm here to gather intelligence beforehand!"

Seeing Hook's mysterious appearance, Luffy couldn't help but find it amusing.

Recalling that Hook was the strongest in the entire Aether Front in the game, Luffy asked.

"Is Hook also playing the Etherfronts game?"

"Of course, Hook is really good. I beat a lot of people online last time!"

When this topic came up, Hook also showed a confident smile.

"In the battle for ether, no one is a match for me, Lord Black Hook!"

Volume 1: Chapter 302 Hook, Punished by Academics

Looking at Hook's confident face, Luffy couldn't help but reveal a wicked smile.

"Lord Hook, do you know?"

"what do you know?"

Seeing Luffy's smile, Hook suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Weren't you in school when the event started?"

"Hey?"

Upon hearing this, Hook was immediately stunned.

At that point, she wasn't really clear on the details; she only knew that the Ether Front was having an event in Beloborg recently.

They completely forgot whether they still needed to go to school.

At this moment, Hook lowered his head, biting his fingers, looking thoughtful.

"What are you thinking about?"

"I'm wondering if I can ask for leave to participate in the competition!"

"So you want it? What will happen if Natasha finds out?"

Upon hearing this, Hook indeed shivered.

"Just kidding, Hook was just joking!"

If I really anger Natasha, then I can forget about having a good vacation from now on.

"It's okay, you can still squeeze out some time to participate on the weekend!"

Luffy patted Hook's head and gently comforted him.

After all, the event lasts for a relatively long time, during which there will naturally be school holidays.

However, it will only last for two days.

"Damn it, why wasn't it a week later? Then Lord Hook could have participated in the competition at will!"

Hook took out his phone and glanced at it, only to find that the match was scheduled for the week before his school holiday.

It would have been fine if it had been a week later, but it just so happened to be during her school year.

The only good thing is that the final event took place during Hook's vacation.

At least she can go see the live final.

"Damn it, who booked this competition?!"

Looking at the game time, Hook was so angry he stomped his feet.

"Yes, but who placed the order?"

Luffy, who was in charge of organizing the competition, also expressed his curiosity.

"It's alright, Lord Hook, let's prepare for the next competition!"

"Damn it, I won't accept this!"

Looking dejected, Hook turned around and prepared to leave.

"Hook, you're leaving already?"

"Well, Hook has something to think about, so I'll be leaving now. Goodbye, Brother Luffy!"

Before long, Hook's figure disappeared from Luffy's sight.

"Excellent, one opponent has been eliminated!"

Now, one of the biggest obstacles in Luffy's game has been successfully overcome by Luffy.

"Let me think... Besides Hook, the most powerful player in the game should be Star!"

With this in mind, Luffy also decided to find a way to target Xing.

Luffy remembered that the Star's Ether Spirit should be a piggy bank.

Since that's the case, let's find a way to train against piggy banks.

Luffy happened to remember that Topa seemed to be attending as well, which would be a good opportunity to address Topa's issues.

"Perfect!"

Having completed his plan, Luffy left with a relaxed expression.

Now all he has to do is wait for the event to begin.

After leaving the Iron Tail restricted area, Luffy first went back to the company and teased Seele.

Under Seele's resentful gaze, Luffy returned to Crepper Castle.

The first thing I did upon returning was to go to the storage room in the basement of Cripper Castle to see if any of Hilly's things were there.

"Come out, Siryl, Little Shadow!"

After arriving in the basement, Luffy released Cyril and Shadow from the Aether Coin.

With someone to do the work, Luffy naturally wouldn't need to do it himself.

Luffy then found a clean spot to lie down and instructed Hilly and Shadow to search for him.

"After all, it's your own self, so it's better to find it yourself, right?"

"Master, you're right!"

"I'm a little annoyed," Hilly said.

However, she was still quite concerned about her memory, as she hadn't been able to recall much more information during this period.

Therefore, Hilly was still very concerned about whether she could regain her memories.

Xiaoying on the other side was much more direct.

Perhaps because she had almost completely lost her memory, she carried out Luffy's orders almost without hesitation.

After Luffy gave the order, she didn't hesitate to rummage through a pile of old books for information about Hilly.

However, it's unclear whether Hilly's tenure truly caused resentment among the people.

Hillier and Xiaoying searched through the storeroom for a long time.

Still nothing about Hilly has been found.

"Looks like you really aren't popular!"

At this moment, Hilly also looked depressed.

Fortunately, the group did not come away empty-handed. After searching for another half hour, Xiaoying finally found an oil painting.

The drawing depicts a woman with short, orange-red hair.

She held a thin sword in her hand, staring blankly ahead.

Xiaoying initially thought it was just an ordinary oil painting, but after seeing the woman in the painting, Hillier said without hesitation.

“That person is me!”

Looking at the woman in the portrait, with her short orange-red hair and peach-like skin.

Now look at Siril, who has become the Shadow of the Guardians, with her white hair and pale skin.

Is the person in this painting you?

"Yes!"

As she spoke, Hilly seemed to be reminiscing about something.
